Shaohong Feng studies bird (and occasionally other vertebrate) genomes to understand how species evolve, adapt, and decline in population size over time. This work often involves large-scale comparative genomics across many bird species, examining topics like genetic diversity, population history, recombination, and how mating systems or social behavior relate to genome evolution. Much of the research is part of large international consortia that assemble and compare reference genomes across entire bird families or the whole avian tree of life.
Publication output was steady at a modest level from 2018-2021, spiked sharply in 2022 (likely due to a large collaborative genome-consortium release), and has since settled back to a steady moderate pace through 2025-2026.
